He divided and dispersed a fighting force of sixty thousand troops into twelve separate units.
Forming a defensive perimeter, they defended each other and significantly minimized the risk of surprise attacks by enemy experts.
Each camp was equipped with an equal number of rocket and armored vehicles. In the event of an attack on one camp, all artillery would be directed towards Basha’s Sacred Mount. By then, even if they couldn’t kill them, they could completely evaporate all the peaks of Basha’s Sacred Mount.
“Rest for today and act according to plan tomorrow morning!”
“Yes!”
The deputy immediately stopped, stood straight, and saluted Zedran in unison.
***
On the other side, when Matthew arrived at the Sacred Mount and looked at the dense troops in the distance, his brows furrowed tightly.
From childhood to adulthood, favonovel.com had only faced modern warfare on the scale of tens of thousands once.
Although favonovel.com didn’t fully grasp large-scale warfare, favonovel.com still sensed the underlying terror, unless it was a decapitation strike. Otherwise, even if they solved the other party, the thousands of shells falling on Basha’s Sacred Mount would instantly evaporate all the peaks.
“Your Highness, is the fleet‘s contact okay?”
After putting down the high-powered telescope, the prince also looked worried.
After coming to Seraphis for so long, favonovel.com felt powerless for the first time.
“Matthew, I have sent them precise bombing locations for the fleet. But within Zedran, inside and out, it’s filled with anti-missile systems. It’s difficult to destroy them with long-range bombing by the fleet…”
And if the first round of attacks couldn’t annihilate the enemy, the disaster would fall on Basha’s Sacred Mount.
Twenty kilometers might seem distant, but against rockets, it was essentially point-blank range. Even the proud prince couldn’t help but admire Zedran’s ability to deploy troops and formations.
Layer after layer of outer defenses, like a tortoiseshell, tightly protected the internal square.
“Forget it. Let’s first meet with Lucius…”
The two found Lucius, and all the big shots of the Sacred Mount had gathered here.
Amidst the tense atmosphere, everyone looked visibly displeased. The Sacred Mount had always stayed aloof from worldly conflicts, maintaining a sense of transcendence. It was surprising that someone would dare to provoke them.
“Matthew, you’ve come at the right time!” As soon as they met, Lucius greeted them immediately.
“Now that everyone is here, we can start. Although we don’t know the other party’s intentions, Zedran is hostile. To prevent accidents, we need to move the elderly and children on the mountain to a safe place first.”
This naturally had no objections.
“Feather, organize all the combatants, and maintain constant surveillance on the other party. Report to me immediately if there are any anomalies!”
With Lucius’ busy arrangements, everyone left one after another after receiving their respective tasks.
When only Matthew and the prince were left, Lucius’ gaze also turned towards them.
“Matthew, do you not know why the other party is here?” Lucius really couldn’t understand what the other party was up to.
Matthew smiled bitterly and expressed his guess.
“If I’m not mistaken, Zedran should be here for me. So this time, I came to take my wife and the others away. As long as we depart from Basha’s Sacred Mount and they lose their target, they won‘t dare to cause trouble there.”
His plan was simple.
After taking away his people, favonovel.com would hide in Skargness. Zedran would not dare to invade Seraphis unless they wanted to start a war between the two countries.
The road ahead posed a real challenge.
When Lucius heard Matthew’s plan, anger flashed across his face. “Do you think less of our Sacred Mount, Matthew? We’re family, your affairs are our affairs!” At that moment, Lucius’ powerful aura seemed to ooze out.
